You Would Do the Same for Me	comment	Stock Phrase that can be a way to brush off a thanks, being similar to Think Nothing of It with more than the surface meaning, or a moment of friendship and trust. Can be, "I'd hope you'd do the same for me," which could be more powerful, as it takes expectation of anything in return out of the equation, or "You did the same for me," to Call-Back to a previous moment and emphasize the friendship from both angles. May be played for laughs or tears when that it is painfully obvious that no, Alice wouldn't. Genders don't matter. Flip the words around a bit and you get "I'd do the same for you," which makes this a guilt trip, not that that's always a bad thing. If it's a more serious situation, such as after a Shoot the Dog, you may hear, "And I expect you to do the same for me." This is not a villain saying that The Hero would have done the same if the hero had been in the villain's place. This may overlap with Now, Let Me Carry You (when the first person habitually looks after the other) or Wounded Hero, Weaker Helper (when the two may not know each other).

You Would Do the Same for Me / int_11e3f224	comment	In one episode of Everybody Hates Chris, Chris abandons his Homecoming date to help Greg. Greg doesn't feel too good about it, because Chris' date will hate him forever. Chris doesn't care about that, and says that Greg would do the same for him; Narrator Chris notes that years later, when the situation came up, he didn't.

Homer, grateful, but also puzzled, asks Ned why he would save his like that, and Ned answers that Homer would do the same for him. Cue an Imagine Spot of Ned trapped in a house fire and screaming for help while Homer merely looks on and laughs at his misfortune. Homer confirms anyway.

After the pursuing robbers crash their van in a ball of fiery flame, the Driver says they'll call Highway Patrol from the next town to report the 'accident'. He notes dryly that they wouldn't have done the same if the situation had been reversed.

You Would Do the Same for Me / int_3defe34c	comment	Discussed in Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality. Harry explains that, in a true Prisoner's Dilemma, you want to figure out how the other prisoner is going to react—if the prisoner is different enough to act opposite to you, then you rat him/her out. If not, you don't—knowing full well that the other person like you will come to the same conclusion, which is the only reason you're silent in the first place.

You Would Do the Same for Me / int_45854dfc	comment	In Starship Troopers, a marine is snatched by a flying Arachnid, which begins to dismember him alive. Lt. Rasczak, his CO, grabs a sniper rifle and shoots him through the heart. He then turns to the remaining marines and says gravely: "And I expect anyone to do the same for me." Rico later does. Fridge Logic kicks in when you consider that Rasczak could have at least tried shooting the Arachnid first. Worth noting that this is exactly the opposite of the book's philosophy, which is all about No One Gets Left Behind. The lieutenant's death, in fact, comes when he's making sure every last one of his troopers, dead or alive, is evacuated from a battle.

[the caldera of an active volcano]". Bones promptly responds "he would let you die." In the film's climax, Kirk sacrifices himself to save the Enterprise, claiming that Spock would have done the same thing if their positions were reversed. Spock later proves Bones' earlier assertion wrong by taking Khan in alive when he wanted to kill him to save Kirk.

Chuck asks why, since Chuck could just order someone from his company HHM to do that. Jimmy replies that they're brothers and Chuck would do the same. Chuck is noticably guilt-tripped, since he has just said what he actually would do and, at this point, Chuck is still hiding his resentment towards Jimmy.

Archie's health and spirits are broken, and seeing his friend as a self-assured Acting Lieutenant is the last straw. He tries to starve himself so that they could plan their escape and not consider him or wait for him to get better. When Horatio notices, Archie refuses to get helped. It's a very poignant scene when Horatio insists that Archie would do the same for him, but Archie refutes by telling him that he would never be in his position, feeling that Horatio never screws up.
